Recently I got a notification that the latest map sets were available from Garmin. So I ordered their update dvd. It took a few weeks, but I finally received it before I pulled the Airstream out of the town I lived in.

So, this morning I’m updating the 2610. Just started the update, and it will take a while.

The 2610 only came with a 128MB CF card. But a few months ago I found a 1GB card on the cheap. I picked it up, and it works fine in the Garmin. Now I can load the Eastern Seaboard, and all the way out to Wisconsin southward. While having to update a unit might be inconvinient to some travelers, it isn’t that bad. And with my new card, the need to update the GPS isn’t so bad. Not like my trip west with the GPSV (updated that every day).
